Definition

  • Stratification is the fact of being composed of strata. A stratification is all the more visible as the lithological contrasts between the layers are more important. This should not be confused with schistosity. (Adapted and translated from: Foucault A., Raoult J.-F., Platevoet B. & Cecca F. (2020). Dictionnaire de Géologie. Dunod (9e édition).)
